While I agree this being helpful, as I earlier stated, it would be nice to have
a (additional?) method that takes arrays into account as well, as equals() only
does an identity check on arrays. In the current situation, one has to check
for arrays before using either equals() or Arrays.deepEquals(), which makes
Object.equals() pointless as identity and null-check are already done.
